AWAKENING THE REVENANT LYRICS

1. Intro

2. This City Screams War

This city screams war
Don’t even pretend that I ever did you wrong
You should suffer for what you have done to me
 
I’ll take this hatred and scream it from the rooftops
This is my portal to the world
Everyone will know how
 
You took everything that was good and pure
And tore it to shreds
 
I’ll rip you apart and burn the remains
As if you were meant for nothing more
 
Long ago the seed of hatred was planted
With time it grew and blossomed
I feel that now is the time to let the world see it
This is my portal, my chance to let everyone know
 
That you’re nothing but a deceitful coward
All your friends have left but I’m still standing strong
 
You had this coming for far too long
You always said you wanted hate, well here it is
 
Love forever cloaked behind a shield of rage
This song is dedicated to you
To letting the whole world know how you fucked away everything I know
 
I will never let you take control of any part of me
That part of me is dead
 
Everything you are, is everything I hate
I don’t hold grudges
I don’t cross bridges
I burn them to the ground

3. The Great Deceiver

I abort the souls of the followers
The ones that fall in the hands of God
There is no salvation for the ones that are lied to
Follow me I am your messiah
Your God has abandoned you
Now your forced to stand on your own
So bow to me
I am the one you hate
You are the ones being destroyed by me
The streets will flood with the blood running through your dirty veins I’m never gone
I’m always watching
Feel my presence
It’s upon you
You can’t escape me
I’m the cancer living in your brain
Devouring every inch of life that you have left
Bow your heads and pay respect
This is the greatest
Event your eyes will see
You mother fuckers think you know hardcore
You don't know shit
This us
A slap in the face
Of what you love
You couldn't touch our music
You shouldn't even try
Back down you mother fuckers
We'll bury you alive
Who’s to say what I’m doing is wrong?

I'm living to live, you're dying to give me the fix that I need.
I'm more alive, you can't breathe.
You can't see me anymore.

4. Conqueror

Here we stand on this precipice
You and I with the world before us
You are given a choice
Take your life
Or I’ll end it for you
No longer 
Will I let myself
Suffer for your transgressions
Your soul shall be torn from your body
And the blood 
Will spatter the walls of this great hall
You stand in the presence of gods
And you’re not worthy 
Kneel before me
Your life is mine to take
Ripping flesh, crushing bone
Your pain echoes in my brain
And holding your limp corpse
I find my solace
You knew this game wouldn't last forever
It was only a matter of time
Until you were found out
Cowardice can only take you so far
You see me now 
Through bloodshot eyes
You’re hoping that 
The sun will rise
But guess what mother fucker
You'll never see the day
Your final setting has come
You will not last
Hope and pray
Empty prayers find an empty ear listening
All love has abandoned you
Cliches are for the movies
And this isn't a happily ever after
No longer 
Will I let myself
Suffer for your transgressions
Your soul has been torn from your body

5. Your Demise

When you spread your legs you’re spreading your deceit
A useless fucking whore

Fuck you, you piece of shit
The putrid stench of your rotting soul makes me cringe

And the time will come when you rue the day
The day that you crushed all
Only to stand on the limp corpses to raise yourself to new heights
I will be standing there
To ensure your demise goes as planned.

Fuck you and everything you are
I can smell your fear this won’t get any easier
Once you back down that’s when suffering will begin

Don’t call out to God to save you now
I’m the only one that decides if you live or die
For too long I’ve waited idly at your side

The time has come
Get on your fucking knees

Your tears feed my destruction
The cries of you and your loved ones make me kill
I will never fall i’m the Alpha, the Omega.
 
You say the words, I’ll never close my eyes
You say the words, I’ll never let this hatred die

Close your eyes
I’ll grab you by the neck and rip you from limb to limb

6. My Redemption

This is my redemption
This is my path to salvation
A path traced in your blood

You will never let me feel this love again
My eyes blinded by hatred
Your sacrifice will be nothing compared to mine
You deserve so much more than this

I’ve held this back for far too long
You mean nothing now
I hope you're listening to this
I’m calling you the fuck out

I dig my nails into your flesh

No hope for my salvation
I am my own savior; I don’t need your weakness

You held your masquerade for too long
A sinner, a saint, you can’t pretend I’m wrong
Cutting these ties and throwing you out
Should’ve meant nothing so much longer ago.

Nothing more than dirt you shall remain
I’ll find satisfaction in knowing
You’re far more miserable than I

You backstabbing prick
Fuck everything you are
This is my chance
This is me calling you out

Forgive but never forget
This is my redemption
Like a phoenix I will rise from these ashes to tear you apart
I will never wash your blood from my hands
It’ll serve to remind me of the horrors caused
This is my redemption
I will forgive, but I can never forget 

This is my redemption.

Paralyzed by the fear that you'll never die
I’ll do anything I can to ensure your misery

This has never been such a sweet release
Your blood streaming through my fingers
I have never felt so alive

This has been coming for far too long (Shatter the ties, and let you die)
You will die alone and empty (And I would love to be there)
To watch you fall
